Loter Kuluinai

I totally, totally scored some awesome stuff at Half Price Books tonight.
It was like frickin' Tarnin Austa. Without the balrogs.
Not only was there a very nice copy of Mr. Bliss from 1983 (with the dust jacket!) and a copy of The Battle for Middle-earth...
...but most importantly, I was able to get a copy of Parma Eldalamberon XIII! (The Alphabet of Rumil & Early Noldorin Fragments).
You know... the one with all the naughty words in it...because it's very important for me to have print access to the Elven words for 'penis', 'sex', 'tits', and the rest.
But seriously? Oh, I was squeeing... was I ever squeeing... in the 'Official Name List' section... There's a whole page of Gondolin Elves!
Of course, now I have new names to memorize -- will keep me busy a little while, since I've pretty much got everyone down, with mother and father names, etc. So now, I have something else to play with.
Damn you, plot bunnies! *tosses into hutch* I'm still woefully behind on the oeam fic yet due to that wedding. But...
Loter Kuluinai... sounds so Hawaiian... or looks that way, at least...
Alright, I have to go and deal with one overly super-happy muse with his newly rediscovered names, and... comfort the poor, mostly forgotten one.
Suppose I best go stock up on peaches...

Well, I certainly bookmarked the essay about all those interesting words which was posted on SWG a while back. Purely for the love of knowledge, of course.
>>Loter Kuluinai... sounds so Hawaiian... <<
Could this be proof of the existence of a surfer Elf? ;-)

Date: 2010-06-10 02:46 pm (UTC)for my museOne of the muses is extremely fond of peaches. It just sort of happened, and while I wasn't particularly a peach fan previously, I think it was just something I wandered into. So I am very interested in any peach recipes you might have... I'm limited thus far to eating them raw or making smoothies (which, is really still just eating them raw through a straw).
